- Society members wrote the script for the Fonthill Cemetery Historical Guided Tours on October 16, 2026, and perform as the historical figures.
What the site does not say
The society's page does not say who may attend, what it costs, or whether you need to register for the October 24 meeting, and it gives no street address for Kirk on the Hill. Ask the society before you go; its contact page is on its site.
